joseki choice

    Keywords: Opening, Joseki, Strategy

Choice of a joseki sequence, or between a number of possible variations in a joseki, in order to fit in with the overall situation on the rest of the board.

The books The Great Joseki Debates and Whole Board Thinking in Joseki cover this area.

Choosing the correct joseki in a corner, or one sensible variation out of many, can be considered as an aspect of direction of play. One wishes one's resulting group(s) to be 'pointing in the right direction'.
